It can be started with =E2=80=9C-usedefcmap=E2=80=9D, but it=E2=80=99s stil=
l unplayable as it
seems to scroll through the user interface at very high speed.

I just noticed that there is an earlier bug report from 2016:

    https://issues.guix.info/issue/23217

As the problems haven=E2=80=99t been fixed since then I would prefer to rem=
ove
xboing.
